Manor Formula 1 Team Auction On Line

If you're looking for over 3,000 items up for auction that come from the now bankrupt Manor F1 Team, do we have a link for you! MANOR AUCTION

You only have until May 16th to bid on any (or all) items, as in THOUSANDS of car parts, tools, clothing, wheels, vehicles, etc. Let's take a look at some of the cool stuff you can't buy every day.

Lot number 1, a rolling chassis from the 2015 season. It doesn't quite have everything, missing an engine, gearbox, and steering wheel, but how cool would this bad boy be?

HOW ABOUT AN F1 STEERING WHEEL? BIDDING IS OVER 2,500 BR. POUNDS ALREADY, AND THEY HAVE 4 OF THESE UP FOR BIDS.

F1 Steering Wheel

Hey, those look like leaf blowers! What in the world is this? Well, glad you asked! The F1 cars mostly keep cool by going at high speeds on track. When they come in to the pits, you'll see the mechanics sticking these leaf blowers into the air ducts to keep forcing air through the radiators and keep the engine and other systems cool. Racing leaf blowers...I need a pair of those!

Quick, back to car stuff! How about a wheel? They've got a LOT! One idea for these BBS brand racing wheels is to put a cool piece of glass on top, and BAM you've got a cool F1 table! Or hang this thing on your garage wall and use it to coil power cords on. Your choice!

Here's a handy item, two boxes of Brembo Brake Fluid. Everyone mostly tries to make their car fast, but they sometimes forget that a faster car needs more help stopping from higher speeds. Also in the auction you could find some brake pads, calipers, and probably make your car stop better than ever!

Now seriously, this racing suit with the name "Alex" and a US flag on it is probably a valuable collectible. Alexander Rossi drove a few F1 races for Manor, and then last year you might have noticed that as a ROOKIE he won the Indianapolis 500! Even if this doesn't fit me, I think I need it!
